I just bought some new pc4000 ddr memory.
512mb Kingston HyperX 500 mhz
to work with my old:
512mb Kingston HyperX 333 mhz (pc2700)
My motherboard doesn't support PC4000 but i was thinking it seems like i could just underclock the ram to run with old ram. Anyway it doesn't work, i get some bios error when i try to start and the horrid bios beeping. I've tried setting the ram speed in bios preemptively but this doesn't work either, is there something else i have to do to underclock it?
I'm also aware this seems like a waste of money but i got this pc4000 for cheaper than the pc2700 so =)
